Got ten minutes to spare?
Want to see a really clever little animated short?
Watch this...
It's called "Flat Life" and it was made my Belgium artist Jonas Geirnaert in 2004. it won the Jury Prize at the 2004 Cannes Film Festival.
I thought it was really rather charming.
And made exceptionally clean use of spare sound and rhythm.
Cheers,
Mr.B

Who is Mr.B?
Mr.B is a thirty-something actor/improviser living in Chicago, IL.
He performs at several local theaters and this is, for him, a very happy life.
After a few drinks, though, he will tell you that he secretly wishes that he were paid to be a writer.
Until that actually happens, the words are freely given here, on his blog.
Want to link to "word" in your own blog?
First, thanks! I appreciate your passing the word along.
Second, I ask one thing of anyone who wants to link to "word". Rather than link to it, using my actual name, I ask that links to word, actually say simply "word" or "Mr.Bs blog".
I do this to protect myself from current and future employers who might come here and be distressed to see how often I say the word "fuck" or talk about "our fucking president" or how much I want to "fuck Rosario Dawson".
Your kind consideration keeps the Internets free for me to use dirty words and I thank you for it!
Cheers, Mr.B
